We've been to the Woodman quite a few times over the last 3 years and the quality of food has varied from good to very good. Tonight though it was excellent. I had the honey & hoisin roast duck from the specials board. The duck was pink and tender and the flavour was great as were the flavour of the... More

I've been coming here quite often, usually for a drink, for about 25 years. The wooded valley location is very attractive, especially if you want to sit outside at the tables beneath the overhanging front canopy - handy in the summer when it's raining, as it often is round here! I've never stayed here as live locally. The handpulled beer... More

Strangely,we visited the same night as Goldenwilby and dined at an djoining table.I had no problem with handing my card over for prepayment,it is such ccommon practice in pubs.What an atrocious fuss the man made over this triviality,nearly as bad as his grammar!The lady manager,i thought,was a paragon of patience in dealing with a not too receptive person she did...

Myself and my husband have visited several times, but only for a drink. The menu looks nice, but slightly pricey, but we dont mind paying if the quality is very good. On our most recent visit we met up with friends and sat outside in the glorious sunshine! The pub is in a great countryside location with lots of walks... More

We choose to dine here last night after having a good experience 18 month/ 2 year ago. Rang to book a table to be told the restaurant was closed that night and they where serving in the bar. Just turn up and no need to book. Not a problem I thought. We arrived and was informed to sit any where... More

My husband and I have been frequent visitors to The Woodman over the years until about 12 months ago. The service slipped and we had more than one poor meal with bad service. In the name of festive cheer we decided to give them one more chance today, and I have to say they surpassed themselves in the atrocious services... More

We were visiting family in the area and the only accomodation left was here,due to a big night at the Picturedrome in Holmfirth. A bit further out than we wanted to stay but glad we did !! The room was clean and tidy but had a small problem with a leaking radiator in the bathroom. I informed the staff and... More

This was our first stay at this accommodation and a last minute change from another local establishment. We were on the ground floor in the 'Ash' room which was a twin with plenty of space, lovely pine furnishings and the beds were nicely dressed with a throw and cushions. Tea, coffee, biscuits and hot chocolate were provided. We ordered a... More

Some friends and I went for a meal at The Woodman Inn, we'd booked a table (apparently they only take bookings for the restaurant upstairs). We were greeted at the reception desk by a smiling waiter, and asked whether we would like to go straight through to the table or sit and have a drink first. We were shown through... More
